Maximum number of recordings

I've just tried to record a program and get a message "...you have too many recordings scheduled at onec. Please go to Settings>Setup>Preferences and set maximum number of recordings to six".

 

I currently have 5 recordings scheduled.

 

I go to Settings>Setup>Preferences and there is no option to change the maximum number of recordings.

 

Any advice gratefully received!

Hi @Brother+Binary   What is your hardware version, Home -> Settings -> System info -> Hardware version.

Hi Nigea99

 

Initially I was doing it on a minibox, but I have the same issue on the main box.

 

Thanks.

Hi Ozsat

 

Just normal recordings I think. I can do five at a time already.

 

Thanks.

hi @Brother+Binary can you confirm the Hardware version showing in :

Home - Settings - System Info - Hardware Version

 

If it is 32Cxx then you have a 1tB that can only record 3 and I don't think any option to change

Re: Maximum number of recordings

Thanks for the replies so far - not sure whether I should combine the replies?

 

I'm off now for the rest of the evening, so if there are more thoughts I'll pick them up later / in the morning.

Hi @Brother+Binary   Are you on software version Q220 (or Q230)?

Re: Maximum number of recordings

Just had another look, and now the option has become available on the main box. I'm pretty sure that this wasn't there earlier, but maybe I just missed it.

 

So, problem sorted. Many thanks for the replies - I didn't know about this forum, and am sure I'll have some other questions in due course.
